verbs - What are the functions of each part of the principal parts?


I'm having trouble understanding each participle. I also can't find an explanation that I understand.


I would like to know from you the function of each part of the principal parts:



  1. Present

  2. Present participle

  3. Past

  4. Past participle


PS My native language is Dutch.
